The other Imperial Realm experts also exchanged baffled glances. Such an esoteric technique as the Weapon Control Art, they had never even heard of, much less imagined that such a supremely skillful method for controlling magical treasures could exist in this world!
"Hmph! No matter what, he can run, but the monastery remains!" Wu Qilang suddenly spoke, his voice cold.
"Right! Ye Yunfei is a student of the Heavenly Dao Academy in the Northern Wastelands Domain of the Xuanhuang Star Domain. We'll just go directly to the Heavenly Dao Academy to demand his surrender!" Hearing this, the other martial artists felt their spirits lift.
After all, within the Xuanhuang Star Domain, the Heavenly Dao Academy was merely a second-rate power, easy to deal with.
At that very moment.
"I'm right here. Who dares to make trouble for the Heavenly Dao Academy, I will slaughter every member of the younger generation within their sect. When I, Ye Yunfei, speak, I mean what I say." Suddenly, a faint voice rang out.
"It's Ye Yunfei! He's over there!" Immediately, someone followed the sound and shouted.
They saw Ye Yunfei appearing on the distant horizon, standing imposingly in mid-air, watching them coldly.
"Ye Yunfei, don't you dare escape!" Instantly, the Imperial Realm experts unleashed their movement techniques, charging towards Ye Yunfei one after another, each eager to be the first. Everyone was convinced that Ye Yunfei possessed the Demigod Herb. How could they let him get away easily?
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The Imperial Realm masters streaked across the sky, their speed astonishing.
Ye Yunfei stood motionless, a cold smile on his lips as he watched those Imperial Realm experts rapidly closing in.
All the Imperial Realm experts before him were at the Early Stage Imperial Realm. And Ye Yunfei's current comprehensive combat power was already sufficient to rival Early Stage Imperial Realm opponents! Therefore, facing these Early Stage Imperial Realm experts, Ye Yunfei didn't feel much pressure.
Soon, as they charged, gaps opened up among the Imperial Realm experts. Those most skilled in movement techniques pulled to the front.
"Capture Ye Yunfei!" The martial artists from other factions also unleashed their movement techniques with all their might, surging forward like a swarm of locusts to surround Ye Yunfei.
Just as the leading few Imperial Realm experts were about to close in, Ye Yunfei abruptly activated the Sky Shadow Robe's tenfold speed boost and instantly retreated a large distance.
"Impossible! His speed is this fast!" The few leading Imperial Realm experts, both shocked and enraged, accelerated again to give chase.
Finally, the fastest Early Stage Imperial Realm expert closed in on Ye Yunfei first!
"Ye Yunfei, stop! Submit and be bound quietly!" Elated at the chance, the Early Stage Imperial Realm expert roared.
To get his hands on Ye Yunfei first would be to claim the Demigod Herb on his person! The mere thought made this Imperial Realm master extremely agitated. He even forgot the formidable strength Ye Yunfei had displayed earlier during his breakout.
At this point, Ye Yunfei simply halted his retreat, watching calmly as this Imperial Realm expert rushed towards him.
Suddenly.
Whoosh!
Ye Yunfei executed his Heavenly Soul Sword, attacking the Imperial Realm expert's Soul Sea.
"Ye Yunfei, still trying to use Soul Power martial arts on me? I'm prepared!" The Imperial Realm expert roared in alarm.
Boom! Boom!
Within his Soul Sea, two Soul Power artifacts activated simultaneously to counter the Heavenly Soul Sword.
Clang! Clang!
The Heavenly Soul Sword continuously clashed with the two soul artifacts, producing crisp, ringing metallic sounds.
"Being prepared is one thing." Ye Yunfei sneered coldly. As his words fell, he unleashed the Weapon Control Art. One hundred magical treasures appeared simultaneously, all activated, swarming forward to bombard that Imperial Realm expert.
The Profound Magnetic Mountain and over a dozen Innate Treasures erupted with the most terrifying might, akin to a dozen volcanoes erupting at once, causing the space in that area to boil violently.
"That move again!" The Imperial Realm expert was startled and desperately retreated. However, Ye Yunfei had struck with preparation, his speed far exceeding the other's. He had no intention of letting him go.
Boom! Boom!
One hundred magical treasures, dense and numerous, bombarded the Imperial Realm expert's position.
"Damn it!" Utterly enraged and alarmed, the Imperial Realm expert pointed with his hand. An Innate Treasure shot out from his body, activated directly to block the oncoming assault. Simultaneously, he executed a movement technique, soaring skyward in an attempt to flee.
Yet, trying to resist over a dozen Innate Treasures with just one was utterly futile.
Clang!
His Innate Treasure was sent flying.
"Ahhh!" Next, struck simultaneously by the combined force of over a dozen Innate Treasures, the Imperial Realm expert let out a miserable scream as his body was flung away like a kite with its string cut. The lower half of his body was completely blasted to pieces, vanished, leaving only his upper torso.
"Ahh! Ye Yunfei, you destroyed half of my physical body! This grudge cannot be settled under the same sky!" Scared out of his wits, the Imperial Realm expert's upper torso desperately fled into the distance while roaring in fury.
"What?! Ye Yunfei actually maimed an Imperial Realm expert?!" This scene left the swarm of pursuing martial artists behind him utterly flabbergasted and dumbstruck.
Especially the Imperial Realm experts at the forefront. It was as if they'd each been doused with a basin of cold water. They instantly sobered up.
"How is this possible? Ye Yunfei's combat power can already rival Early Stage Imperial Realm experts, even maim them!" All the Imperial Realm experts halted in their tracks, stopping their charge. The few who'd been leading the charge even paled in fear.
They knew it was only because their speed wasn't fast enough. Otherwise, the one lying maimed would have been them!
For a moment, a tense standoff fell over the scene. Dozens of Imperial Realm experts faced off against Ye Yunfei, with a large mass of other martial artists densely packed behind them. All eyes were locked intently on Ye Yunfei.
Truthfully, an Imperial Realm expert getting maimed in just two or three moves was an utterly shocking impact on all who witnessed it!
One must know that within the Xuanhuang Star Domain and the few surrounding star domains, Imperial Realm experts had always held a lofty, revered position. When they walked the world, who dared not respect them? Who dared provoke them?
Generally, any younger generation member wouldn't dare breathe loudly before an Imperial Realm expert, even speaking had to be done with extreme care. Yet now, this young lad had so easily maimed one right before everyone's eyes!
"So Imperial Realm experts aren't invincible! With sufficient strength, an Imperial Realm expert can also be defeated so easily!" Some martial warriors couldn't help but think to themselves.
"Let's all attack together! I refuse to believe that so many of us Imperial Realm experts can't take down this single junior!" Wu Qilang bellowed fiercely.
"Right! Attack together! Combine forces against him!" The Wetchi Elder from the Tongtian Sect also roared.
Thus, all the Imperial Realm experts simultaneously moved to surround Ye Yunfei. Of course, their speed wasn't as frantic as before, and there was no more racing for first place. They advanced uniformly.
Boom! Boom!
Innate Treasures, one after another, were continuously activated and sent flying towards Ye Yunfei.
However, Ye Yunfei had no intention of engaging these Imperial Realm experts in a protracted fight. He immediately mobilized spatial energy, instantly diving deep into the void and disappearing.
With Ye Yunfei's current strength, the energy suppression released by these Imperial Realm experts was no longer able to constrain him!
"Damned! He's traveling through space again!" The Imperial Realm experts were all furious and disconcerted, yet utterly at a loss as to what to do.
